Sexual positioning sex sling by Sportsheets - review by Sammi

The Sportsheets Sex Sling is best used to hold up your partner’s legs during sex – whether oral or penetrative – while they are on their back. It’s ideal for those who enjoy long oral sessions or penetration in the missionary position, and could be used by any couple, regardless of sex or orientation.

The sling has soft ankle cuffs and a soft neck rest so it’s comfortable to use. The long straps are easily adjustable for partners of any height or size, and can be shortened or lengthened to make the leg suspension as comfortable as possible, reducing tiredness in leg and back muscles associated with keeping the legs in this position for long periods of time.

The Sex Sling consists of 2 fuscia cuffs attached by black nylon straps to a fuscia neck rest.

Each cuff is 10” long and 2” wide. The covering, a short piled faux fur with nap, is soft to the touch. 4 1/2" of Velcro is sewn to the back of each cuff, and the connecting Velcro piece is also 4 1/2" long and 1” wide. The Velcro is stitched to the cuff with black straight stitching, and looks secure. The cuffs will fit ankles up to about 13”, although above 8” the ankle will feel the Velcro (smooth side).

In addition, the nylon strap runs across the inside of the cuff. With a lot of movement and twisting on the ankle it can be felt on the skin, but if the ankles are just resting in the cuffs it isn’t noticeable.

In the center of each cuff is attached a long nylon strap which is wrapped around the cuff in the middle. The strap is a generous 47 1/2" long and 1” wide. At the end where it attaches to the neck rest is a plastic slider through which the strap is fed. The strap has a loop on the end that goes through to prevent it from coming all the way out, and it’s very easy to adjust by pulling on the end or putting a finger through the small loop and pulling. The strap can be shortened as much as necessary and can easily be adjusted during use. Once the strap is pulled through the slider, it doesn’t slide as easily back the other way. The length can be shortened quickly, by either the bottom or the top, but it’s much easier for the top to lengthen it in use if necessary.

The neck rest is 9 1/2” long and features a nylon strap slightly longer sewn firmly onto the back. This strap has small loops on each end which go through the slider and anchor them in place. A small black tag with Sportsheets on it is in the center of the back of the piece. The inside of the neck rest has 2 sewing lines that run its length where the nylon strap is sewn on the other side. The lines do not cause discomfort during use.

This sling works particularly well during long oral sessions. You don’t have to let your legs drop or fight to keep them in the air – with the straps adjusted your ankles rest comfortably in the cuffs and can’t lower down.

It works well during missionary sex as well, whether penetration is vaginal or anal. While it didn’t seem to provide more g-spot stimulation during vaginal penetration, it did keep legs from tiring or cramping and kept access open. It kept access open for anal penetration as well and kept concentration focused on the pleasurable sensations and not on keeping legs up or apart.

The Sex Sling also works well if your partner is using toys on you, or any combination of toys and fingers/tongue/penis.

This is very easy to use, and the straps are easy to get to the right length. It’s more comfortable to have the straps shorter and your legs held higher as it seems to put less stress and strain on the muscles.

The Sex Sling comes in a clear plastic clamshell that’s easy to open. The product is visible through the sides of the package, and pictures of the product in use are on the front and back.

Inside the package is the sling and a small instruction page which lists the features of the product and how it can help during sex.

The Sex Sling won’t take up much room in your luggage, although with the bright pink cuffs and neck piece it may cause attention if your baggage is opened.

The Sex Sling can be cleaned by wiping with damp cloth or spot cleaning as needed. It can also go through the washer in a lingerie bag on delicate cycle if necessary, and dripped dry. The sling is fairly flat and compact when the cuffs are open and easily stores in the bottom of a drawer.
